I have only test driven the SRT-4 once, so excuse me if this a dumb question.

I remember when I would start to slow down, or down shift....the car would make a sparatic grumbling/popping sound. It wasnt loud or anything, but noticeable. It sorta reminded me of race cars backfiring (or is it misfiring?) as they slow down and come into a corner or someting. Maybe its normal, since this was the first turbo car I have ever driven.

(i hope my description isnt to vague)

Yep, same thing as the race cars. It's a sign of a good free-flowing exhaust and it's not harmful. In fact, it's cool! 8)

its called back fires........as scc said the exhaust sounds as pissed as it acts....spitting turbo noises and back fires. otherwise it means its a good thing

 

[daytonagts]

I think it sounds Great

 

[SpitterGuy]

The sound of POWER. That sound has to be the greatest sound next to a classic muscle car

 

[glhs837]

That has to be the one thing aboout the car that makes everyone who checks it out smile. "It sounded that way when you bought it?" has to be the most asked question. After "How fast is it?"

 

[SRT-Hunter]

Hell ya....it was incredible....i loved the sound....i was just wondering what it was. As I said in another post...it would be a crime to put a ricer style fart can on this car.

What exactly causes that backfiring noise? Pops from the exhaust valves opening?

 

[SilverBullet]

I second that question.

not trying to hijack this thread, but a new hemi 1500 with dual outlet 40 series delta flow flowmaster muffler has to be the sweetest sounding thing i have heard in a long time. dont get me wrong, but the srt-4 sounds like a v8 at idle, but if you have ever heard a 1500 hemi with flow.......you know what im talking bout :twisted:

The word is "not enough BACK PRESSURE".
